You need to parse JSON - date with:

var date = new Date(parseInt(jsonDate.substr(6)));

EDIT: In your case:

$.post("/BindInventory/GroupName", { tourname: tname, MatchType: MatchType }, function (result) {                      
               var startdate = new Date(parseInt(result.sdate.substr(6)));
               var enddate = new Date(parseInt(result.edate.substr(6)));
               $('#date').datepicker('option', 'minValue', startdate);
               $('#date').datepicker('option', 'maxValue', enddate);
           }, "json");
